My church Centre of New Life will be having a programme for Easter 2001. Do check it out if you are in Singapore. If you are not sure how to go there, just drop me a mail.

A presentation and a test tommorow, a mid-semester test on friday, an essay due next wednesday and a test next wednesday as well. I better get my act together.
The Philosophy of Socrates
After seeing that program on Socrates, I picked up The Philosophy of Socrates by Thomas C. Brickhouse and Nicholas D. Smith from my school’s library.
“I say that it is the greatest good for a man to discuss virtue every day and those other things about which you hear me conversing and testing myself and others, for the unexamined life is not worth living for men…” ~ taken from The Philosophy of Socrates by Thomas C. Brickhouse and Nicholas D. Smith
I do agree with some of his points, especially with his famous words “Know Thyself”. I think alot of people got involved in cults, because they never really questioned. Its like an unexamined faith. God have mercy.
Afrosamurai
Looking for Afro Hair Styles again, i happen to came across Afrosamurai by Tokyo Trash. Way cool…
greek philosophies
Last week, i saw a very good programme on the Greek Empire and the majority of the documentary was on the great philosopher Socrates. Its interesting how some Philosophies can change our mundane lives into lives of meaning and purpose. Philosophy is from the Greeks, by way of Latin, philosophia, “love of wisdom”. I wonder if thats a virtue or sin?
